Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Salvation comes, to those who are fully dependent. Dependent on God the Father for his wonderful plan, on Jesus for his sacrifice on our behalf, and on the Holy Spirit for his wisdom, his calling, and his strength. We bow humbly, Lord, and say thank you. We are also reminded, to tell all those around us, of your great Name! Hoping and praying, that we are locked in on the tremendous gift given to us, through our childlike faith, this Easter season, and every day! God Bless You All.
and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me;

Thank you Jesus, that we can find REST, in knowing that we find salvation, by faith, through Grace. We don’t need to be weary, trying to earn our salvation, but find joy in pleasing you, by your work on our behalf through your life, death, and resurrection. My we shout it from the rooftops, that Jesus saves us, from our own sinful ways! Can I get an AMEN?
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
MATTHEW 11:28 NASB

It may be foolishness to those who cant see it, but may we never get weary of telling those people the Gospel. For we know, that the Gospel is the power unto salvation to those who believe. Just as we were foolish, our eyes were opened by Salvation’s Grace. May we never give up on those who are blinded. God never gave up on us.
For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 CORINTHIANS 1:18 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.1.18.NASB
Following Jesus, is not for cowards. No matter what comes our way, we know that nothing, can take us down. Even in death, we will rise again, to be with our risen Lord. What a hope, we have in Jesus. My prayer, is that during this Easter season, and every day, we share that hope, so that those without hope, will find it, in our risen Lord.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves; we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;

https://bible.com/bible/100/2co.4.7-9.NASB
Lord, this life is a marathon! Help us to run the race with endurance. Let us not lose site, of the hope we have, and the crown of life we will receive. Not because of what we have done, but what Jesus has done on the cross, and resurrection, and through his Holy Spirit, working in us. Thank you, Lord.
Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
James 1:12 NASB

Thank you Lord, that we are wonderfully known by you. May we use this for good, to allow us to be changed by you. May we not withdraw from you, as we see our own sinfulness, but embrace your truth, that we are whole, by putting our faith and trust in Jesus. Amen!
Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts; And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.
Psalms 139:23-24 NASB
Love God, and walk in his ways and find life, both present and eternal . The alternative, comes in the next couple of verses. Reject God, and his ways and you will find death, both in this present life and for all of eternity. Something to consider wisely.
in that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, that you may live and multiply, and that the Lord your God may bless you in the land where you are entering to possess it.

Our deeds are not because we are so good. It is an outpouring of our hearts, when we understand how good, God is to us. His Grace and Mercy should flow out of us, because we have been the benefactors of them.
“I, the Lord , search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds.
